    I think that’s only for the main instance though. A alternative server can be hosted anywhere since it’s federated.

      True, but since Matrix includes some centralized components like the identity server and also tends to replicate channel content on their main instance (happens as soon as someone with a matrix.org account joins any channel regardless of the homeserver), I think it is better to list it as UK based.

      Furthermore it does matter where the main developers are based (Conversations: Germany, Movim: Netherlands).
